2 Fuses And Circuit Breaker problem

Failure Date: 04/30/2000

Fuse box controls all electrical parts of car-lights, alarm, & parts of engine etc. Our paticular problem is that it continues to blow out the fuel pump and play havac with lights not working, car not starting and just shuting down. Doors won't work, seats won't move, trunk won' t open etc. Everything electrical is effected by the fuse box . The Ford motor CO. Is unable to get the part after 3 weeks. I would think that a company of that size would have parts in stockto fix this problem. The company can not give me a definitive date as to when this part will come in.
